Passover Celebration
Some of you viewed the Passover video. Just to let you know how interested many people are in our Jewish roots, we currently have 70+ people who will be attending out Passover Seder meal on Friday evening. Even though the actual Passover was Monday, we are observing it on Friday simply for convenience sake.
I would encourage any of you pastors to begin to study the Jewish roots of Christianity. You will be amazed at how much preaching and teaching material you will come up with, not to mention how much "oneness" material there is. If some of you desire some reading material, check out the NLC web site and go to the "Pastor's recommended reading list" http://www.newlife-church.org/reading.htm go to near the bottom of the page, and you will find a list of 11 books to get you started!
A number of these books can be found on amazon.com and some even used so you can save some of your green backs! Enjoy!!!

Personally I would rather our churches not use the word easter and instead say we are celebrating the Resurrection or "Resurrection Sunday" or even "Passover"

I was listening to a jewish person on the radio talk about Passover. I thought to myself that instead of the Easter egg hunts, etc that Passover would be a great way to celebrate the death, burial and resurrection since it's so ripe with Christian symbolism directly related to the Gospel of Christ -- the true passover lamb.

I wouldn't call it 'Christian symbolism', but yes there are plenty of Messianic references (by Messianic, I'm referring to 'pointing to the Messiah').

Yes, good point. Lead them to Christ as Messiah by showing them the symbols and how they reference Jesus.
